Taking place over the Whitsun bank holiday, the whole family can enjoy this day to celebrate the best of multiculturalism in North Wales. There will be tasty treats from all over the world available to get your taste buds tingling, from a traditional Welsh tea room to paella, and other international flavours.
There’s lots to see and do, too, including Welsh gifts and crafts; dance, sports and vocal demonstrations; various entertainers giving it their all; salsa and kizomba lessons (look it up!); arts and crafts workshops; and even tours of the magnificent castle, undertaken by an expert from the region.
It is a day out with a difference that people of all ages can enjoy and take part in, with flavours, music, crafts and traditions coming from all corners of the planet – from Africa, Asia, Latin America and – of course – from lovely Wales itself.
